Recorded on December 21, 1928 in New York City. Hurt said, when asked about this sweet murder ballad, that he "made it up from hearing people talk. He was a great man, I know that, and he was killed by two men named Bob and Louis. I got enough of the story to write me a song."

A 1 Ballad
It's no wonder John Fahey did his "Requiem For Mississippi John Hurt" in memory of this great Artist,Garcia/Grisman do a top rendition as us Dead Heads know.

Wonderful song!
I'd say I'd was one of the most beautiful songs ever recorded...just wonderful! Jerry Garcia did the song with Grisman... that's where I discovered it!

This is Hurt's best song, and of the greatest from the blues. Quite possibly the best murder ballad ever recorded.
